Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an insightful overview of the origins of keyboard music in England from around 1550 to 1630. During this period, keyboard music evolved a distinct identity and technique, separate from vocal and organ music. It acquired great importance as a musical genre, and a wealth of material from this period has been preserved. Through analysis of various sources, the book examines the new figural material and musical forms and styles cultivated by the so-called 'Virginalists'. The author explores how these innovators expanded and refined existing musical forms and techniques, creating new and exciting musical possibilities. They established the basis for the further development of keyboard music and influenced the course of Western music as a whole. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
